In a word Nailbiter, since reading this story penned by Joshua Williamson I have been eager to read more of his work and this new series looks like it will be right up my alley. With a look into a mix of fantasy and reality Birthright is looking like an intriguing story but the proof will be in the reading when October comes.

Creator/writer Joshua Williamson (NAILBITER, GHOSTED), artist Andrei Bressan,and colorist Adriano Lucas team up for the highly anticipated new fantasy series BIRTHRIGHT, from Skybound/Image Comics and reveal an awe-inspiring variant cover by Image Comics partner and Top Cow CEO Marc Silvestri and colored by Sunny Gho.

BIRTHRIGHT begins with an innocent game of catch in the park and ends with a couple still in search of their missing son years later—never knowing what became of him when he disappeared into the woods that day. But of all their imagined scenarios, nothing could prepare them for what happened when he returned. So begins the new epic series, BIRTHRIGHT, where fantasy becomes reality.

BIRTHRIGHT #1 (Diamond Code AUG140536) arrives in stores on 10/8, as an oversized 40 page issue, available for only $2.99. The variant cover by Marc Silvestri can be pre-ordered with Diamond Code JUL148295.
